Inexperienced leadership, no long-term goals - Mitarbeiter (anonym) bei Worksmith: Mitarbeiterbewertung

The leadership team is very young and inexperienced. Their goals are set only in short-term - everyone is basically just working month-to-month with no real idea for what the goals are in the long term. The end of each month is chaos trying to reach goals, and then it resets at the beginning of the month. They pulled people from the jobs they were hired for and career paths they want to temporarily do another job since they didn't forecast far enough in the future and plan staffing accordingly. The work expectation is very much an "always-on" mentality, with leadership checking in with employees at 7 or 8pm to see who is still in the office, or announcing that they expect everyone to be in the office for extremely long days until they reach the goals they've set. Working remotely is frowned upon, and employees are expected to be in the office even while sick unless they are physically unable to work. The office has a bro-y, toxic culture, ranging from men tossing a football around the office (even after knocking a glass of water on someone's laptop), goals and data being presented using sports analogies, and sexist comments being ignored by nearly everyone. Leadership tried to address sexism but due to their inexperience, sexism continued. Communication is a big pain point due to their systems not being built out well - likely why they require everyone to be in office and discourage working remotely. Much of your day is spent asking people questions that could easily be answered if the system was built out better, or having people interrupt you to ask similar questions. Overall, not a good place to work. I recommend checking out H.Bloom's Glassdoor reviews as well - founded by the same person with some of the same people on the leadership team, very similar issues from employees.
